Toxic and deadly as can be.
Yet I crave it like a drug,
Intoxicated by your touch.

Love

Bitter Love

Our love was once so sweet,
But now it tastes like bitter defeat.
Our passions turned to hate,
And our dreams became mistakes.

What was once a flame so bright,
Is now a fire that burns with spite.
Our love has turned to ash,
And we're left with nothing but the past.

Why did we let our love decay,
And push each other so far away?
Our hearts are cold as ice,
And our love has paid the price.

06

Love

Twisted Affection

Our love is a twisted vine,
Entangled in thorns and brine.
A force that binds, yet strangles too,
Leaving us with nothing to do.

We've hurt each other, time and again,
Our love marred with anger and pain.
But still we cling, despite it all,
Unable to tear down this wall.

We love fiercely, yet we fight,
Our passion like day and night.
We're trapped in this web we've spun,
Our love, both beautiful and undone.

07

Love

Sickly Sweet Love

Our love is a sickly sweet,
A poison that we cannot defeat.
We're addicted to each other's touch,
Even though it hurts us so much.

Our love is like a drug,
A need we cannot shrug.
We fight and cry, yet still we stay,
Addicted to each other every day.

We know we should walk away,
But our hearts refuse to obey.
Our love is sickly sweet, so true,
A bond that we cannot undo.
